My new present to myself!

[FONT='Times New Roman','serif']I was finally able to get a new Dillon 550B press over charismas I paid 560 for it with all the conversions I needed, tool heads, extra priming tubes, and parts kits and powder dies. took only a week to get here was very quick. loaded 1500 rounds only one day after getting it set up. thought i would share a photo as i know most on this forum have progressive presses. for only being 20 years old its one more thing off the list.

foxtrot you point is well taken and actually, that is what i did that day i went and fired the first 100 than came back and finished the rest off on the press once i found the load i liked! i have been reloading for 2 years on a single stage before i moved to the progressive. doesn't mean ill make a mistake one day we are always learning.

graves i bought it from a Dillon dealer in Colorado if you are interested in getting one he is located in boulder he is also a kimber dealer works out of his house i have his phone number.

Just a word of advice - make sure you shoot a few of your very first reloads before you go reloading several cases of the stuff, especially if your a new reloader. You'd be amazed what problems you can find and nip in the bud - or on the flip side, find later and have to pull 1,500 rounds otherwise.....

Speaking from experience. Although my worst one ever was only 700 rounds. *sigh*

+1 on brutal experience... just because you deprime the case doesn't mean the case is all the way resized too..
